About This Cause
WWX17 aspires to be part of the solution in eradicating homelessness by reintegration of this population back into the mainstream of society. WWX17 has been supporting and serving the homeless community, senior citizens, college students, pregnant moms, and members of the LGTBQI communities in the Fort Worth-Dallas, Texas area since 2015. WWX17 has a passion for the work that we do. Moreover, we believe that homelessness is not prejudiced, that it crosses socio-economic, religious, economical, mental capacity, gender, age, veteran status, sexual preference and racial barriers. In fact, this destitution affects men, women, and children in urban, rural, and suburban communities. Currently, the agency reaches out to various homeless communities on a quarterly basis. Collaboration is critical in this effort of making an impact and changing lives. Volunteers of the board of directors, co-workers, family, friends, other agencies, high school basketball teams, college students, local politicians, and neighbors assist with donations, packing, and distribution of survival kits for immediate needs for our homeless communities. The events are facilitated by the board of directors; in addition to volunteers of co-workers, family friends, other agencies, high school basketball teams, college students, local politicians, churches, and neighbors assist by donating time, money, and items for the donations.
